Hi-Dong Chai Poet Free verse

Human Mind - Limited

Two times two is four
Four times two is eight
Eight times two is sixteen
How far can we multiply by two?
Forever

Two divided by two is one
One divided by two is one half
One half divided by two is one fourth
How far can we divide by two?
Forever

Where is the end of the universe?
Forever

So, I confess
Our mind is limited
Between infinity and infinitesimal

Beyond which
We use the word
FOREVER
Meaning  I don’t know

Quoth Theraven November 7, 2020 at 11:33 AM Hi-Dong, Very cerebral & sobering musing in numbers. If you could see past forever, would you want to? And to that task, like what you saw? -Richard
